Re: Bucket list?

Oh man, I had to write one of these for my Expository Writing class! I still have it! Here, have a copy & paste thing!

Ten Things I Want to Do In My Lifetime

1. Visit my pen pal, Aaron [last name edited here], who lives in [edit], England. Aaron and I have been friends for three years, and through all the Skype chats we have had, I’ve learned so much about the British culture and I have made a great friend. Living in America, I have often spent Saturdays wondering, “If Aaron lived here, I could take him to this great CD store in [that one town] and we could go to that new move later.” It is hard having a close friend live 3,000 miles away. I really want to meet him in person, without the barrier of an ocean and a webcam.

2. Have a photography session during the months of Midnight Sun in Nordic countries. I love photography, and having a friends who were born in Sweden, I have always wanted to visit the Nordic countries. The Midnight Sun is a natural phenomenon that occurs during the summer there (so it wouldn’t be too cold, and I hate the cold), and a quick Google search will show the amazing photography shots available during that time.

3. Go to Cleveland, Ohio, to visit the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Great Lakes Science Center, Lake Erie, and my friend Geoff.Music is my passion, and natural science fascinates me. I want to visit a Great Lake for the new experience, and I have not seen my friend Geoff since middle school.

4. Visit Japan in April.I want to visit a culture that is completely different than mine, and the Japanese culture is a good match for what I am seeking. Cherry blossoms are one of my favorite plants, so visiting in April will give me the opportunity to attend the Cherry Blossom festival. I also love Japanese art, so buying some authentic Japanese works would be fantastic for me.

5. Take a trip to California.All my life, my dad has talked about how great California is (he used to live there). I want to see a West Coast sunset and see if California is as great as he makes it out to be.

6. Go on a road trip to Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana (specifically new Orleans), and Texas. I have never been to these states before. I have so many friends in this broad area, and also reading the book Huckleberry Fin has always made me curious to see how Midwestern life is along the Mississippi River. I want to have a personal photography session along the coast of the Mississippi River; viewing images from photography websites has shown me the complexity and detail of this landscape.

7. Get a college degree.Education has always been very important in my family, but I am the first family member to have the opportunity to attend college. Not only do I want the personal satisfaction of obtaining a higher education to have a better life, but I want to see the joy in my parents’ eyes as I walk across the stage to receive my college degree; they have spent the last eighteen years of their lives wanting better for their daughter, and I want to make them proud.

8. Marry my best friend.I don’t mean my best friend right at this moment, but I hope I am lucky enough to spend the rest of my life with someone who loves me for everything I am and will support me in everything I do. I hope that when I am sixty years old, I am with someone whose love for me grows more and more with each passing day. That level of companionship is one of the strongest bonds I have ever seen and I hope I will be blessed enough to experience it myself.

9. Become a positive YouTube role model and have 15 minutes of fame.I don’t want to be in the spotlight for my entire life, but I am fascinated with how revolutions in technology have allowed people from all over the earth to have a voice and change the world. I admire the people on YouTube who use this power to reach audiences to create and inspire positive social changes. These people won’t be world-renowned like Mother Teresa or Mahatma Gandhi, but they supply that quick energy to get the masses inspired for change.

10. Build my own computer.I love technology, and I’ve always wanted the satisfaction of being able to build my own computer to the exact specifications for how I want it. Hopefully, with the completion of item seven on this list (I wish to major in computer engineering), I have the knowledge to do that.

So basically I want to do a crap-ton of travelling and spending time with people. Writing this list made me feel like Ellie from the movie Up.

Re: Bucket list?

@Beag1.how did you met him?4. tell you whhhat, it's beautiful, I used to shower under cherry blossms on my way down to school when I used to go to elementary school in Korea.6. on your way down there, meet, Diss, Housefox, and other forumitee. I may move to somewhere around there once I turn 18 so. heh. Meet me if possible...7.*hugs* everyone knows that you are gonna make it8.around when? if you have a chance.10.easy peasy.

1. I'm actually referring to the forumite, 44R0NM10. I refer to him as my pen pal simply because I don't want to start the conversation of, "Hey guys I met him on the Internet." My parents think we did a pen pal program through our English classes. I'm actually meeting him this summer when he and his family go on vacation just a few states away from me.

6. Again, I was also referring to the forumites as well. X3 I've had a friend from GaiaOnline the past four years who lives in Chicago, and I also want to meet Sleet, Diss, and Tha Housefox. I am considering moving to the Midwest when I am older. While I never want to leave the south, I want to be in a more diverse area, a big city. I would never move back up northeast, though. I hate the cold and that chapter of my life is over. The Midwest has much of the southern culture but also a better urban environment. But home is where the heart is, and if I met "the right guy," I may never want to leave North Carolina. I certainly do love it here, but the Midwest is another option of mine indeed.

8. I mean, I don't know! Independence is important to me, and I don't feel like I could fully enter a marriage until I have my own business sorted out. I want to graduate college and have a "grown up" job first. I do not want to depend on someone monetarily and I know that I won't be happy with myself unless I have a career of my own. I will be unsatisfied socially (okay, let's be honest. I'm a people person and very extroverted. I'm only happy I'm very busy- I have a restless, high-energy spirit) and economically, and that will negatively impact me and the person I am committed too. And what if I make a mistake and marry the wrong person in the beginning? My career can't suddenly wake up one day and say, "I don't love you anymore." So... Can that be my answer?

5. Take a trip to California.All my life, my dad has talked about how great California is (he used to live there). I want to see a West Coast sunset and see if California is as great as he makes it out to be.

Take my word for it. Stay away from SoCal. Personally, I dislike the majority of this state simply due to the insane politics. And I want out asap.

I love California, all of it. They have some great state, national, and historic parks.

My list...- Come up with a bucket list- Learn guitar. (I think I'll try it out this summer)- Visit another country. (Not sure where, just somewhere different and not a part of North America. So, no Canada or Mexico.)- Start a band with friends again. (It was fun but didn't last very long)- Go to a music festival. (Coachella would be great, every year it's too expensive. Or Sasquatch! I keep missing it 'cause friends can't go)- Visit Austin, TX. Nashville and Memphis, TN.- Surf- Build a motorcycle and take the same trip they did in the movie Easy Rider. With out the horrible death

I really don't have much of one. I guess going to Japan, maybe going to the UK. I plan to have a long time to do things, so I don't have a real list.
